Mod Request, Better oil spawner

[666JTK666]

I am asking for this out of frustration at the oil spawning in vanilla Factorio.
I have started a lot of new games and spent hours running around vainly looking for oil spawns when I find them the most I have ever seen at a spawn point is 3 splats of oil.
Every game I have played to date has progressed fine till I start looking around for oil then it's welcome to not happening buddy thank you for pissing away a week of your time working on a factory that will never ever see enough oil to enjoy the end game.

what I want this mod to do:
Every spawn point will be at least 6 oil splats. Really that's about it. I don't care if the spawning groups are far away or pretty rare just that where ever there is oil there are enough splats to make it worth the trip.

As an alternative you could always change the oil generating setting before the create the map.

Anyway the mod you want actually already exsist and it's called RSO
It changes all ore and oil spawns so they a bigger and further apart. Great mod that adds incentive to use trains if you like that.

I should have specified that in these game's I have been generating oil is maxed out all values in a desperate attempt to make the game spawn more oil. I have the same problem in 11.x
Oil just does not want to spawn well for me.
what made me want to toss my keyboard through a wall some guy posted a screnshot of a game he generated that had over 15 splats in one place I am so damn envious.
I will give rso a shot.

You can also tweak RSO a bit and change so that oil always lives in spawns of at least 6. By default it's also up to 3 per spawn and up to 2 spawns per region.

I would really appreciate it if you could tell me how to do that. please tell me.

Go to vanilla.lua file in resourceconfigs directory and find the crude-oil entry.
There you can change size - min and max values and/or spawns per region. Size is amount in one spawned area, spawns per region says how many separate spawns will be in one region (210x210 by default).
